Given the complexity of IMAP, I would be rather surprised if such a beast 
ever exists. Most of the other replies to your post have ignored this part 
of your requirements.

You're better of with the approach of running fetchmail to download messages 
to your local IMAP mailbox (and they'll probably have to be deleted from 
your corporate IMAP server, unless fetchmail can keep track of which ones it 
already downloaded -- and I don't know if it can) and filtering it on your 
local IMAP mailbox.
